10 must-know tips for crafting the perfect looking README.md for your GitHub repo (with examples)

1. Center Your Elements

Bring elements like your logo or headings to the center to make them pop.

Example:

<div align="center">
  <img src="your-logo-url" alt="Logo" width="320" />
</div>

2. Responsive Logo

Use <picture> and <source> to make your logo responsive and cater to different color schemes.

Example:

<picture>
  <source media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)" srcset="dark-image-url">
  <img src="light-image-url" alt="Logo" />
</picture>

3. Add Badges

Use badges to highlight important info like license, stars, docs, and more.
Visit shields.io and choose from their collection.
